After staring at rod for a while, the mayor replied, "if you are not in such a hurry, a business group will come to the town in a few days. You can follow them to the city of mourning."

Rod stood outside his residence. After listening to the mayor's words, he seemed to think of something, so he said, "it seems that there is no freelance chamber of Commerce in this small town."

The mayor replied: "there are not many people in the town, but they still have to live. Many basic materials need the help of business groups to transport."

The mayor's speaking speed was not fast. He was not impatient because he was tested by the foreign necromancer. On the contrary, he used a soothing tone. When he answered rod's questions, he also kept staring at rod's eyes.

After listening to the mayor's explanation, rod was more sure of what he thought. Then he asked the mayor, "I want to start right away. Does the mayor have a map around here?"

The mayor replied, "you should understand the value of maps. If you need someone to lead the way, maybe you can look for experienced people in the small town. "

Rod did not choose to retort. After a moment's silence, rod said to the mayor, "then, don't bother the mayor."

After hearing this, the mayor reminded rod, "the only hotel in the town is in front of the forest behind the town. If you plan to stay in the town and wait for the business group to come, you can rest there for a few days. "

Although rod noticed something, he didn't say anything. He just nodded to the mayor and said nothing.

The housekeeper walked out of the mansion, turned to close the gate, and led rod back to the path he had come.

Unlike before entering the residence, when he returned from the path, rod had been pondering over the mayor's words. Although he did not fully grasp the strength of the mayor, he also had a general understanding.

The mayor was extremely cautious in his words and didn't reveal any key information. However, due to the unequal intelligence, Rhode still saw a lot of clues through the dialogue between them.

Through the mayor's several answers, rod realized that the mayor seemed to want to stay in the town. Even if he indicated that he wanted to get the map and leave immediately, the mayor refused to give it to him because of the high value of the map.

Under normal circumstances, even if the price of the map is high, the mayor will not refuse, but will put forward various conditions to rod, let rod pay a certain price to get the map.

But at this time, the mayor didn't give rod any chance and refused to provide a map. In the end, the mayor seemed kind enough to tell rod the location of the hotel. In fact, he was more suggesting that rod would stay in the town.

Since there is no independent professional chamber of Commerce in the town, it is doomed that the business of the town will not develop, and not many business groups will choose to come to the town.

Small and weak business groups will not choose to go here for fear of danger in the small town. If the powerful business group transports basic materials, it can't see the benefits it gets in the town and will not choose to come to the town.

As for what the mayor said, there will be a business group coming in a few days, rod can only think that either this is just a simple speech of the mayor, or the business group has made an agreement with the mayor in advance.

If the business group really had an agreement with the mayor in advance, it would arrive in a few days or so, and the ultimate goal of the business group is the city of mourning

Rod felt some coincidence, but an idea occupied his mind, and rod had to believe it.

The original silver seal business group probably went to this town before going to the city of mourning.

As for what the head of the Shang Dynasty, yuser, had originally agreed with the mayor of the town, rod could not simply infer. But if this conjecture is correct, the mayor wants to stay here, that is to say, he wants to kill himself and gain profits with the help of the silver seal business group.

The corpse of the necromancer, even if it is only at the apprentice level, can also produce a third-order ghost if handled properly.

Unfortunately, although the mayor's idea was good, he obviously didn't know that rod joined the silver seal business group first, and with his own strength, almost completely disintegrated the whole business group.

If the mayor wants to hold down rod and wait for the arrival of the silver seal business group, it can only show that the strength of the mayor is worse than rod originally thought, or that the strength of the mayor has certain limitations.

Before entering the residence, rod did not take back the ghost crystal from the vampire, but let the vampire put the ghost crystal in his pocket. The mayor can also feel the death energy from the vampire.

Rod can feel the palpitating atmosphere inside the mayor's residence. Whether it's the perceptual warning brought by reconnaissance or rod's instinctive response, they all think that there are powerful undead creatures in the mansion.

But if the mayor's strength is really strong, he will not leave easily.

Rod concluded that this breath should come from the creature specially used for defense. Although this kind of creature is powerful, it has many limitations and cannot leave a certain range.

In the words, although the mayor did not try to introduce himself into the residence, he just arranged for two rows of skeleton warriors to stand in the hall, just to prevent being found abnormal.

If rod sees the skeleton warrior and goes directly into the mansion to attack, he will be attacked by this defensive creature. Fortunately, rod had seen this kind of creature in his previous life, only through subtle feelings, he found something unusual and chose to leave temporarily.

Following the Butler in front, rod and the vampire come to the place where they enter. The housekeeper wanted to continue to lead the way and take rod to the hotel that the mayor said, but rod waved his hand to stop him and turned to walk towards the back of the town alone.

That's where the mayor said the hotel was.

After this trial, although it was only a few words, rod almost completely explored the mayor's situation.

Rod couldn't help but wonder. After he understood the situation, it was just a single sentence, as if something had connected them all together. The original doubts disappeared completely, and the answers seemed to appear in his mind.

At this time, if rod can open the property panel, he will see that the column of hero's special skills in the second line still shows: not awakened (13), but it is flashing fiercely at this time.

In this regard, rod obviously did not know, but while observing the surrounding situation, he went to the hotel that the mayor said.

cutting-edge news

If the mayor's trump card is the defensive creature in the mansion, rod can fight him only when the mayor comes to kill the residents outside the mansion.

In addition to the unknown types of defensive creatures, the rest of the low level undead creatures are not a big threat to rod except for some troubles.

The mayor obviously didn't know that the business group he had expected had disappeared. If we knew that there would be no reinforcements, the mayor would be more anxious than rod.

Seeing that the residents of the town have not yet fled, rod knows that although the energy of death is strong in the town, the manufacturing of undead creatures has not been known to all the residents, at least not the whole town is aware of this.

The residents of the town will be frightened by the disappearance of others, but not all of them will escape.

Rod knew that even if he was making undead creatures, the mayor was doing it secretly. He did not arrest all the residents in the first place.

Rod was not surprised by what the mayor did. Even if the mayor didn't do anything to the townspeople, because it was close to the border and waiting for the war to start, other necromancers would come here and turn all the people here into undead.

these

Because rod is not clear why the mayor did not choose such a way to enhance his strength, he did not directly attack the residents here. Instead, he chose to go to the hotel and wait for the arrival of the night.

If the mayor chooses to capture the residents of the town at night for transformation, rod can kill the undead sent by the mayor, weaken the strength of the mayor, and limit the mayor to the residence.

When the strength of the mayor drops to a certain extent, even if there are Guardian creatures in the residence, rod can also attack by force.

Rod came to a building, which was several times larger than the rest of the surrounding buildings, but still much smaller than the mayor's residence.

Arriving at the gate of the hotel in the town, rod walked in.

At this time, a sleepy old man was sitting at the counter of the hotel. He didn't realize rod was coming.

Rod looked inside the hotel. The first floor was supposed to be a restaurant. There was no one in this time and space. There were only a few tables and chairs. There was some dust on them. It was obvious that the owner of the hotel didn't want to clean it.

Looking at the internal scale of the hotel and other scenes, rod realized that in addition to being used as a hotel, it was also used as a pub for small town residents to have fun here. It should be one of the few places for small town residents to have activities.

Rod went to the counter on the first floor and tapped twice.

The old man who was dozing awoke and looked at rod in front of him with a look of astonishment. It was obvious that there was no one here for a long time, and someone came to the door suddenly.

"I want to rest here for a few nights." Without waiting for the old man to respond, rod first told his purpose.

Hearing this, the old man confirmed rod's intention and said, "I'm sorry... No one has been here for a long time. I didn't expect to meet any guests today. Two rooms, four silver coins a day. Every morning and every night there's some food

Rod nodded, took out a gold coin, put it on the table and said, "one room, no food."

The old man took out a key from under the counter and gave it to rod. At the same time, he held the gold coin in his hand and said nothing more.

Rod took the key and went to the room on the second floor.

Looking at rod walking to the second floor, the old man opened his mouth and seemed to want to remind him of something, but he didn't say anything. He put the gold coin into his pocket and sat back in his seat.

Rod went up to the second floor, went to his room, found a seat, and began to meditate.

Because he may need to fight, and his magic ability has improved a lot, rod does not choose deep meditation that consumes mana value. Instead, he wants to rely on shallow meditation to recover some spirit and improve his mental state slightly, waiting for the arrival of the evening.

In the process of rod's meditation, the vampire doesn't need much rest, just stands aside and holds the ghost crystal in his hand.

…………

At night, as if he had noticed something, rod ended his long meditation and opened his eyes. On the side, I feel rod's change, and the vampire looks at rod.

Rod quickly got up and walked out of his room with the vampire.

It was dark all around, and rod quickly went downstairs. At this time, because it was dark, the old man had obviously rested, and the downstairs was empty.

Rod went to the door of the hotel, took the bolt off the door and went out.

environment

Even in the dense forest of Eli, the light around rod was brighter than it is now.

Rod looked up at the sky. At this time, there is no light in the sky, but a layer of black clouds. It was this layer of black cloud that covered all the stars in the sky, making rod unable to see the scene in the distance.

"Dark sky..."

Seeing the dark cloud, rod seemed to recall something.

This layer of black clouds is like the dark sky that rod once saw in the large cities in Diya. these

At this time, this layer of black clouds, no doubt let rod think of the dark sky he had seen. But rod doesn't know why there are a lot of dark clouds similar to the dark sky. According to the overall level of the town, we can't make a dark sky in any case.

Rod tried to feel the darkness in the sky and felt a strong magic energy. If it is not released by the mage, it can only be made with magic props.

If the mayor has the strength to create a cage to cover the dark sky of the whole town, he will not let rod leave when he goes to test, but directly kill him.

At this time, there was no time to think, rod suddenly noticed the danger and dodged to one side. A creature appeared behind rod, and rod dodged his attack.

On the side, the vampire saw that rod was attacked, and immediately met him, attacking with this creature.

Even though the surrounding light was dim, rod still looked carefully in the direction of the creature through Hawkeye. The ragged cloth robe and the skull like face float freely in the air when attacking. It's the third-order creature, the ghost.
